Honestly? It depends what you're looking for.
People here have given you their opinions and there is truth in them all, but everyone is different.
Tenerife does have some good resorts and some bad ones and if you're careful, spend a little time doing your homework and before you book accomodation please check reviews at places like www.tripadvisor.com I am sure you will find something you'll like in Tenerife at Christmas.

If it's lots of nightlife, bars and clubs with cheap (ish) accom then Playa De Las Americas is for you, but it can be dirty, sleazy and an expensive mistake. The accomodation at 2 & 3 star is very basic with the odd cockroach infestation thrown in for free- No I am not kidding- roaches are big and in their millions in Tenerife and the grotty accomodations have problems with the bugs- they get in the beds, the drawers, cupboards- everywhere- so be warned!
Let me also just say, theres no such thing as "Cheap" in Tenerife at Christmas. If you are there for Christmas day it can be expensive. and very poor value indeed. Its not unusual to pay top dollar for crap!

If you are a little more discerning then out at say Playa Fanabe going towards Adeje or Even Costa Adeje itself is much much nicer.
There are some half-decent apartments at Fanabe which come up on special offer- the Los Olivos- 2-3 star- basic, but ok.
The hotels are much nicer and worth the extra. The Costa Adeje Gran is lovely or The Cleopatra/Sir Anthony complex is worth a try. The Costa Adeje Palace and the Colon Guanahani are all good.

Los Crisitanos is nice too- The Arona Gran is the best hotel there, but there are some decent apartments too.

Tenerife is popular for a reason, many many people love it and return year after year, but you have to make sure what you book is right for you.

Good luck!

It is a rough old place nowadays, if you like mixing with chavs, and dont mind stepping over people having sex in the street it is a lovely place!


Robfev
no, no, no! its too common. me and my wife went to ghana in africa. fantastic!


snetterton
It's not a good place at any time. Full of chavs and beer-bellied, beer-swilling louts.

Yes, the weather is good most of the time (22-25degrees). The whole island is not full of chavs/teenagers, you can go to Los Christianos, Costa Adeje or anywhere in the north of the island and it is beautiful!! Fuerteventura is also a beautiful island (much less over-developed)

Yes i have a friend who goes every year.


LAURA
yes i have been there at christmas time and its perfect

In terms of the weather its a great idea. Lots of Europeans (Germans, Scandinavians) fly to the Canary islands also in Jan-Feb. and the packages are not that expensive (from Europe.) There might be a bit more of a youth holiday culture there,but its a lot safer than going to Egypt.
